If it is in any way comforting, my Daisy was spayed at 4 months old....she was a sickly puppy mill puppy.....she did fine. She's almost 11 years old now and there have been no problems due to her early spay, just good health despite very bad breeding.

Just a few months ago, Daisy broke a tooth and had to undergo surgery to remove it. I was very worried about her going under because she is a high risk dog with liver disease. She did fine.

Teddy had an MRI and spinal tap two months ago and he had to be under general anesthesia. The neurologist told me the risk of anesthetic death is less than 1% of 1%........it will be a much greater risk to you and Poppy when you drive her to the appointment so put the risk into perspective.
Excellent info. THANK YOU from all of us!
